Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Remarks:

Non-corrosive

Conclusions:

Under the experimental condition of the study, the Triisononylamine did not increase decrease of tissue viability when applied on EpidermTm. Hence, the test substance was considered as Not Corrosive according to CLP criteria.

Executive summary:

This GLP compliant study was performed in order to evaluate the skin corrosion potential of Triisononylamine to human skin EpiDermTM in an in vitro study according to OECD Guideline 431 method.

Two tissues of the human skin model EpiDermTM were treated with the test item Triisononylamine for 3 minutes and 1 hour, respectively. The test item was applied to each tissue and spread to match the tissue size. Demineralised water was used as negative control and 8 M KOH was used as positive control.

After treatment, the respective substance was rinsed from the tissues. Then, cell viability of the tissues was evaluated by addition of MTT, which can be reduced to a blue formazan. Formazan production was evaluated by measuring the optical density (OD) of the resulting solution. After treatment with the negative control, the absorbance values were within the required acceptability criterion of mean OD ≥ 0.8 and ≤ 2.8 for both treatment intervals thus showing the quality of the tissues. The OD was 2.1 (3 minutes experiment) and 2.0 (1 hour experiment).

The positive control showed clear corrosive effects for both treatment intervals. The mean relative tissue viability value was reduced to 9.9% after 1 hour treatment.

After 3 minutes treatment with the test item, the mean value of relative tissue viability was reduced to 91.5 %. This value is above the threshold for corrosion potential (50%). After 1 hour treatment, the mean value of relative tissue viability was reduced to 93.5%. This value, too, is above the threshold for corrosion potential (15%).

Under the experimental condition of the study, the Triisononylamine did not increase decrease of tissue viability when applied on EpidermTm tissue. Hence, the test substance was considered as Not Corrosive.
